Joanne: Are they still around here? Mrs. B: Well, Bill--Jim's in Burford, but Bill is in Alberta. And Sharon of course is down across from Dr. (Jack) Shavers. (Talbot street, Scotland) Joanne: Could you tell us about how you spent holidays? Christmas for instance? Maybe you could remember what it was like when you first came to this area? Mrs. B: You mean weather-wise? Joanne: Oh, weather-wise--what customs you've been used to. Mrs. B: Oh, I don't--I don't know. You know. Gee, the kids have been gone so long I forget. I've had grandchildren around for so long and you know. We always got together, like, when my parents were alive or when my mother was alive we always had Christmas. Even when it was between Christmas and New Years we always had it with her--all of our family, our sisters and brothers. And after she went, well just our own family had Christmas together., Now the last couple of years we haven't got together at all (laughs) Joanne: So, what you'll probably be doing here is answering more Questions about your children--things that they used to do when they were young, because they would have grown up here (in Scotland) mostly. Mrs. B: Well, the twins were ten and. Sharon was 12. Joanne: What kind of groups were there around here for them to belong to? Like organizations, clubs? Was there anything? Mrs. B: I don't remember that my kids belonged to any thing. Yes they belonged to the clubs when they were in Burtch--but not here. The boys did but ah, I don't remember that they belonged to any group after we came here. There was a certain group of boys and they used to go camping and things like that but I don't think was any special organization. My granddaughter used to belong to the--I think whe belonged a year anyway--to the CGIT down here at the Church. Joanne: Do you belong to any one of the churches? Mrs. B: No, not here. I go to Brantford. Joanne: Was there any special kind of programs that was put on at the school your children went to? Like concerts or anything that might stand out in your mind at all? Mrs. B: I don't think we've had concerts for quite a long while.
